Not Feeling Spiritual?

Ever have those days when you are not feeling spiritual? Sometimes God seems like He is so far away. Unless you are trying to push God away, this is normally when Christians begin to wonder, "What is wrong with me?" -- "Why isn't God close to me?"

The truth of the matter is that God is still there. No matter how you are feeling God is with you no matter what. We try to gauge God's presence and love for us based on our own "human-feelings-meter". If we allow the human-feelings-meter to guide our decisions and direction in life, we are in for some big trouble.

When we are feeling alone all we need to do is open our Bibles and read God's promises. God's promises are the wisest choice (instead of our fleshly feelings). Reading a verse like Joshua 1:5 tells us plainly what we need to know when we aren't having a super-spiritual day:

"I will never leave you nor forsake you" Joshua 1:5

That's all I need to know.
